22' x 28' Lean Roof Cabin Architectural Plans
22' x 28' Lean Cottage Architectural Plans The 22' x 28' shed roof cabin packs a complete one-bedroom, one-bathroom layout into 616 square feet. A compact, efficient footprint that makes it one of the most versatile plans in the catalog. The single-pitch roofline keeps framing simple and construction costs low, while the 8' to 12'6" ceiling range gives the interior real volume for its size. This is a plan that works equally well as a backyard ADU, a detached guest house, a home office, or a standalone short-term rental on rural property. Large windows bring in natural light throughout, an optional front deck extends the usable living space, and a washer/dryer hookup makes this fully livable as a permanent or long-term residence. The sleeping loft adds a second sleeping space without touching the main floor footprint. A smart addition for short-term rental operators who want to maximize guest capacity. Three foundation options are included: concrete slab, concrete pier, and crawl-space, covering the full range of site conditions.
